More challenges for DA Fani Willis’ effort to get the Trump trial underway

Fani Willis faces more challenges in her hope to begin the trial of former President Donald Trump. AJC reporter Dave Wickert joins to discuss the latest in the election interference case. 

But first up, Kendra Cotton, CEO of the New Georgia Project, joins the podcast to discuss the organization’s effort to energize a liberal coalition of voters for the 2024 election.  

She also answers questions about the financial and legal troubles plaguing Fair Fight Action, the organization that was given credit for helping elect Georgia Democrats Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock to the U.S. Senate in 2021 and delivering the state for Democrat Joe Biden in 2020. 

Plus, Republican legislators are pushing for a resolution to put a statue of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas on the grounds of the state Capitol. But Democrats are fighting it fiercely.
